Summoner Needs to be buffed

[jadeblade]

I have been playing Red Mage and Summoner back to back using various ways to determine damage output and Summoner is pulling waaaaaay below Red Mage which offers far more raid utility. Summoner clearly needs to a buff or it will have no place in savage raiding, please make some potency adjustments.

I have bad news for you they will never buff SMN enough to surpass RDM, rdm rotation is harder so higher dps is warranted.

They don't base potency values on difficulty because a) that's bad design, b) difficulty is also subjective.

b) difficulty is also subjective.

I normally take this stance as well... but in this case I have to say it's a very objective take that SMN's rotation is on pair in complexity with the Healers.

And this is why reaper does the most damage in the game? Because it's massive wrinkle brain rotation deserves it?
